Not a toad! Like I told my wife: Toads jump 3in, frogs jump 3 feet. 😂

Simple and effective at a relaxing pace. Perfect video, thanks!

A lot of work and money to keep that thing purring. Good job buddy.

Thorough Video on 580K Maintenance...BUT...it's so much easier if you raised the loader, put the safety bar in place on the cylinder, and then raise the hood...

I paint the zerk fittings with bright neon color so I can find mine.

Step one: Rise loader frame and set the safety strut.

HI, Great videos, I just bought today a 580K and I have some maintenance to do, so your videos have been very helpful.

[@charlestaylor2480]

Are you planning on turning it into an extendedahoe and get more bucket's

[@OneEyeCustoms]

Cross thread it and go until you dent the oil can. Lmao

[@alfonsovazquez5511]

Did you ever make a video on the fuel filters because I’ve got a 580k also and replaced the fuel filters now it won’t turn on tried bleeding it but I don’t really know the bleed process and can’t get it to turn on anymore

Seems like Case 580s have a lot more problems than other brands in the same weight class. Transmission problems seem like the topic at the top of the list. The question I have is how does this transmission differ among the other brands? Who has the simplest most rugged transmission on the market? After seeing what is involved with a Case transmission, I would not buy a used one. Does anyone have any advice about Deere, CAT, Kubota, Hitachi, Massey Fergeson? Which one would you choose among old used machines in the $3000 to $6000 range that have transmission, engine and hydraulic pump problems?

That engine sounds just like the Cummins in my wood chipper! SO you have hot weather now just like Florida?

[@doormanfoc]

Do you pour the transmission fluid down the tube with the dip stick?

[@uberneyhernandezvasquez-jh9si]

Hello gentleman, what transmission does that retro have

[@luccalamma2777]

can you please point the engine numbers? tq
